Serving Nassau & Suffolk Counties
Hear from Our Customers
Your sewer line works like it should. Water drains fast, no backups, no slow drains, no sewage smell in your yard.
Your property looks exactly like it did before we showed up. The driveway you paid $8,000 to install three years ago stays untouched. The landscaping your spouse spent two seasons perfecting doesn’t get ripped out. The patio where your kids play stays intact.
You’re done worrying about that pipe for the next 50 years minimum. The seamless CIPP liner we install can’t crack, doesn’t corrode, and tree roots can’t penetrate it. It’s a permanent solution, not a temporary patch that fails in five years and costs you again.
Most residential jobs finish in one day. You’re not dealing with a week-long construction zone in your front yard, and you’re not paying restoration crews to come back and fix everything we tore up.
We’ve handled trenchless pipe lining across Nassau County for over 40 years. We’ve seen what happens to the original cast iron and clay sewer lines installed when most Hempstead Gardens homes were built in the 1950s and 60s.
Those pipes are failing now. Corrosion eats through cast iron. Tree roots crush clay pipe joints. You get slow drains, then backups, then a full collapse that floods your basement with sewage.
We’re local to Nassau County, we respond fast when you call, and we’ve done this exact repair on hundreds of properties with the same pipe problems yours has. You’re not explaining your situation to someone in a call center two states away.
We start with a camera inspection through your existing cleanout. That shows us exactly where the problem is, how bad the damage is, and whether your pipe is a good candidate for lining. Most are.
If the line needs it, we hydro-jet it clean first. High-pressure water removes decades of buildup, grease, and any roots that worked their way into cracks. You need a clean surface for the liner to bond properly.
Then we insert a resin-saturated liner through the same access point. We inflate it with air pressure so it molds perfectly to your existing pipe’s interior, even through bends and curves. The resin cures in place using hot water or steam. When it hardens, you’ve got a brand-new pipe inside your old one.
We dig two small access holes if we’re doing a full pipe replacement with the pull-through method. One at each end of the damaged section. The new HDPE pipe gets pulled through underground and fused at the joints. Then we backfill the small holes, tamp them down, and restore the surface. Most people can’t tell we were there after a few weeks.

You get a full camera inspection before and after the work. You see exactly what’s broken, and you see proof that it’s fixed. No guessing, no trust-me-it’s-fine nonsense.
The repair itself covers the full damaged section, not just a patch over the worst spot. If you’ve got 40 feet of deteriorating cast iron under your driveway, we line or replace all 40 feet. Partial repairs fail fast because the problem just moves six feet down the line.
In Hempstead Gardens, most of the sewer line problems we see involve pipes running under driveways, patios, or mature oak trees. Those are the worst locations for traditional dig-and-replace because you’re looking at $12,000 to $18,000 in restoration costs after the pipe repair is done. Trenchless methods go under all of that without touching the surface.
The new pipe is code-compliant and warrantied. It meets NSF/ANSI 61 standards, which means it’s approved for potable water contact and won’t leach anything into the ground. You’re not getting some experimental material that fails inspection or causes problems later.
Trenchless pipe lining in Hempstead Gardens typically runs 30% to 50% less than traditional excavation when you factor in the total cost. The pipe repair itself might be similar in price, but you’re not paying an additional $10,000 to $20,000 to restore your driveway, re-landscape your yard, or replace the patio we had to jackhammer.
If your sewer line runs under a concrete driveway, that’s $6 to $12 per square foot just to remove and repour it. Add in the cost to dig through frozen ground if this happens in winter, and traditional methods can hit $25,000 to $35,000 total for a job that trenchless completes for $8,000 to $15,000.
The other cost advantage is time. You’re not paying a plumber for five days of labor when the job finishes in six hours. You’re not taking a week off work to manage contractors. One day, one crew, and it’s done.
Yes, and those are exactly the homes that need it most. Hempstead Gardens saw most of its development between 1950 and 1970, which means most homes here are sitting on 60-to-70-year-old sewer lines that are at or past their expected lifespan.
Cast iron corrodes from the inside out. Clay pipe joints separate as the ground shifts and tree roots push through. Both materials were standard in the 1950s, and both are failing now across Nassau County.
Trenchless pipe lining works as long as the existing pipe hasn’t completely collapsed. If there’s still a pathway for us to get a camera and liner through, we can reline it. If sections have fully caved in, we use the trenchless pull-through replacement method, which still only requires two small access holes instead of tearing up your entire yard.
The camera inspection tells us which method your specific pipe needs. Most 1950s-era pipes qualify for lining unless they’ve been ignored for years after the first signs of trouble.
CIPP liners are engineered to last 50 to 100 years. The resin-cured pipe is stronger than the original pipe it’s replacing, and it doesn’t have the weaknesses that caused your old pipe to fail.
There are no joints for roots to penetrate. The liner is one continuous piece from end to end, so there’s nowhere for water to leak out or roots to work their way in. That’s the main failure point on old clay and cast iron pipes.
It doesn’t corrode. Your old cast iron pipe rusted because sewage is acidic and moisture is constant. The epoxy resin liner is chemically inert. It won’t break down from exposure to waste, and it won’t rust.
Trenchless pipe lining has been used commercially since the 1970s, and residential applications have decades of performance data behind them now. Pipes lined 30 years ago are still functioning without issues. You’re not beta-testing new technology.
Yes. That’s the main reason trenchless technology exists. Sewer lines run under driveways, sidewalks, patios, and landscaping all the time, and digging those up costs more than the actual pipe repair in most cases.
We access your sewer line through the existing cleanout, which is usually in your basement, crawl space, or somewhere in your yard. The liner goes in through that access point and covers the entire damaged section underground, including the part under your driveway.
If we’re doing a full pipe replacement instead of lining, we dig two small holes at either end of the damaged section. We pull the new pipe through underground between those two points. Your driveway stays intact because we’re not digging a trench through it.
In Hempstead Gardens, we’ve relined and replaced sewer lines under asphalt driveways, concrete patios, brick pavers, and 40-year-old oak trees without damaging any of them. If your pipe runs under something expensive or difficult to replace, trenchless is the only method that makes financial sense.
CIPP lining installs a new pipe inside your existing one without removing the old pipe. We insert a resin-saturated liner, inflate it, let it cure, and you’ve got a seamless new pipe bonded to the inside of the old one. It works when your existing pipe is damaged but still structurally intact enough to hold the liner.
Pipe bursting replaces the old pipe entirely. We pull a new HDPE pipe through the ground while simultaneously breaking apart the old pipe and pushing the fragments into the surrounding soil. You end up with a completely new pipe in the same location as the old one, and we only need to dig two small access holes to do it.
CIPP is faster and works for most residential sewer lines that have cracks, leaks, or root intrusion but haven’t fully collapsed. Pipe bursting is necessary when the old pipe has collapsed entirely, or when you need to upsize to a larger diameter pipe.
We recommend the method that makes sense for your specific situation after we run a camera through the line. Both are trenchless, both avoid tearing up your property, and both give you a 50+ year solution.
Yes. We’re available 24/7 for sewer emergencies, including nights, weekends, and holidays. When your sewer backs up into your basement or you’ve got sewage surfacing in your yard, that’s not something you wait until Monday morning to deal with.
Emergency response time in Nassau County is typically under two hours. We’ll get a camera in the line, identify the problem, and give you options for how to fix it. If trenchless lining or replacement is the right move, we can often start the work same-day.
Most emergency calls we get involve complete blockages from root intrusion or partial pipe collapse. If the line is completely blocked, we’ll clear it first so your drains work again, then schedule the permanent trenchless repair once the immediate crisis is handled.
You’re not waiting three weeks for an appointment while using your neighbor’s bathroom. Sewer failures are urgent, and we treat them that way.
